Product Overview
Akasa double-sided thermal adhesive tape is a highly effective thermal interface designed for bonding heatsinks to chipsets or other components requiring strong fixing in a hot environment. Features1. Ensure both surfaces are completely clean and free from oil or other contaminants.Clean with Isopropyl or Akasa TIMclean

2. Cut tape to size.Remove yellow protective liner from one side and apply to device using moderate pressure.Remove orange protective cover from the other side and carefully position the device in place using moderate pressure Take care to position the device correctly first time. The device can be used immediately after bonding.

3.Unused tape can be stored safely at room temperature in a dry environment .

The modern PC is potentially a mass of heat output and heat production hot spots. With CPUs rated at more than 100W of heat output, single graphics boards carrying similar ratings (and people want to run two!), multiple hard drives the norm, lots of memory and mainboards covered in heatpipes to combat toasty core logic and PWM circuits, a PC appreciably warming up a room when it’s working hard is no joke.

Watercooling for the PC has been around for years in some form or another, for at least as long as Scan have been in business, with basic physics defining why you want to use it. That means for air cooling, to cope with increasing temperature in the heatsink you need to move the air across it faster. That is why thermostatically controlled fans in your PC will turn faster the hotter something gets.

Akasa AK-TT12-80 Reinforced Micro-FibreglassIf you have to stick your heat sinks on to something because there are no clips or screws, Or you broke something due to the crowbar being a tad to large for the job, This stuff will get you sorted, Just make sure you don't need to separate the parts at a later time, As you might need a bigger than average crowbar.

No problems at allGot this to replace adhesive on the heatsinks included with the Icy Vision. Very pleased with the ease of application and ease of cutting. Plenty left for more applications. Feels pretty strong and drops temps a little compared to the manufacturers included tape. Make sure the surfaces are clean and dry first and once applied and heatsinks fixed, apply pressure for about 10secs to make sure of the bond. Worked for me.
